Something Strange Happening Here!

Something so strange is happening that Those observing it didn't know how to report it, and we don't really know how to describe it! It has never been seen before! There is a tunnel forming on The Holiest Of All, reaching out from It to the north. It is about twenty miles wide, and five miles high. It is growing at a rate of about fifty miles a day as It sits over Los Angeles. Everyone is simply amazed! There are no reports of The Holiest Of All ever doing this before, but it is obviously reaching for a power source north of Los Angeles, trying to draw on it. That is the only explanation. The only thing the Experts in The Afterlife can imagine is causing it, is that there are two prophets and a saint operating in California. They believe this might be the reason for The Holiest Of All's strange behavior. The presence of so many Givers Of Light may be givng it an ability It has never had before! Whatever the cause, this is a very strange phenomena! We will have to wait and see what happens when The Holiest Of All moves off towards San Diego. This is strange, this is very, very strange! The Prophets in California are Jeremiah and Haggai. The saint is St. Bartholomew Buonpedoni.

How Did The Old Ones Actually Steer Their Ships?

People are always interested in anything pertaining to Our ancient space ships. We've been asked what the helm station was like. How did the officer in charge steer the ship? Well We'll try to describe it to you.
By the officer's left hand were the thrust controls. They consisted of a series of levers, three for star drive, three for system drive, and three for planetary drive. Each lever was in different speed levels. The main star drive lever went from 0 to Factor 1,000, a thousand times the speed of light. The lever beside it went to a hundred times the speed of light. The one beside it ten times the speed of light. By using the different levers the helm officer could control the ship's speed down to a very fine point. The system engines only went up to a hundred times the speed of light. So those levers were gauged accordingly. The planetary drive could only reach a quarter of the speed of light. Gauges above the levers told the officer what speed he was travelling. By the officer's right hand was the lever that moved the ship's nose up and down. At his feet were the pedals that moved the ship's nose right and left. Using these the officer actually steered the ship.
Below the lever by the officer's right hand were the controls that worked the steering thrusters. He could activate one of them, or, several of them, make the ship slowly spin around or stop such a spin if the ship should get into one. The main steering controls operated by vecting the thrust of the engines by means of eight force field projectors that surrounded the exhaust tube of each engine. By applying these force fields the exhaust stream was pushed in the desired direction, making the ship respond accordingly. These sound like very simple controls, and we are often asked why We didn't have sophisticated touch controls like in a lot of science fiction movies. We would have loved to have them but unfortunately the nature of Our weapons was such that a near miss from an enemy would send tremendous electrical discharges through your ship. These discharges would fry any delicate controls, rendering the ship helpless. To withstand battle damage We had to have strong, sturdy controls.
The helmsman did have computer systems that operated during normal conditions. But when these systems were knocked out in battle he could handle the ship quite effectively with the manual controls. The thing is, the systems worked and they got Us where We wanted to go!

We were talking the other day about deserts on Earth and how they did not exist on The Old Worlds because the people there had reclaimed every part of Their worlds, that desert regions had atmospheric condensors that reclaimed water from the atmosphere and used it for irrigation, that the water was used one place, then released by the plants and carried in the atmosphere to another place, where it was used again. In this way barren areas were made to bloom. There is a big change coming to Earth when mankind develops anti gravity. It will make the harvesting of forests far easier without destroying the ground around the trees. Selective harvesting will be the way things are done, and not the wholesale butchering of the land to get timber. Simple changes in technology will make vast differences in the way things are done. People laugh at these ideas now, say "Oh, that's science fiction!" but they laughed at air planes, and they laughed at submarines, and all of those things are now reality. If there's a world left in a while, it will be a much better world, a much better world, indeed!
The change in technology, though, may cause some strange phenomenon. We had CDs and DVDs on The Old Worlds, just as here on Earth. The technology was wide spread. But when hyperwave communications were developed, they interfered with the lasers in the CD systems and they would no longer function! We had to go back to magnetic tapes and floppy discs, mainly tapes to transmit information and keep records. Sometimes a leap forward can take out another technology!
